Typically, I do not like putting people on blast BUT I just have to this time! This subject is driving me crazy and I would like everyone's opinion, so please feel free to comment.
For the people who do not know much about sports, Mark Mcgwire is a famous baseball player; and Jay McGwire, his brother, has tried various sports and never got too far. Jay had a personal training facility located in Chino Hills, which went out of business about a year ago.
(For the record, I never had a problem with Jay even though we were so called “competitors”. Jay and I always had respect for each other. Hell, I even worked out in his gym a few times!)
I started thinking, “I cannot believe what I am reading. God please do not tell me that this is happening. We live in the United States of America, the richest and most advanced country in the world. Not to mention, we live in a country where opportunities exist everywhere. But, I guess if you cannot make it here then you can sell your brother out or file a fraudulent law suite.”

Discrimination. Whether we realize it or not, we all fall a victim of it. When we meet someone we, intentionally or unintentionally, judge them by their appearance, such as skin color, weight, height, social status (who is around them), etc. In which then, we mentally categorize or label them and treat them accordingly based off of our decision.
By definition discrimination is the treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category rather than on individual merit.
So often we hear and witness discrimination due to obesity or overweight individuals. But this raises the question; can you be discriminated on because you’re in shape?
I recently went to Minnesota on a business trip to meet with the gym equipment manufactures to get the latest information on newest equipment. As I spent a week there, I accumulated a lot of information and incentives, such as books, clothing, and prizes; just about anything they could give me to get my business. So as I am getting ready to fly back home, I am standing in line at the airport to check in my bags, I noticed there was a very large, over 200 lbs, man in front of me checking in his bags. Anyways
